Step 3 · Measure Tread Width
Using your tape measure, determine the width of each tread. Measure from the outermost visible edge on one side to the outermost visible edge on the other side. Note any variations in width, which might occur if the stairs are not perfectly symmetrical. This measurement is critical for cutting the new treads to fit.
